JENIFER LEWIS: The Storm-Bearer’s Gold (VIDEO)

 As the author and a civil rights pioneer, I wrote
The Storm-Bearer’s Gold as a “Kintsugi” tribute to the incomparable Jenifer Lewis. Through the lens of our reality, I wanted to capture how she took the “mind-storm” of a bipolar diagnosis and, through the slow river of therapy and ancestral wisdom, transformed her fractures into gold. This piece celebrates her transition from surviving the silence of 1990 to becoming a “Resilience-Root” for all of Hollywood proving that mental health is not a weakness to be hidden, but a beautiful, honest language of the soul. This being said, “Continue to show ya BLACKISH, lady.” 💕 #jeniferlewis #MentalHealth #famous #blackish #auntie
